Description

dhb Performance range is designed to get the enthusiast outside and enjoying their sport all year round, whatever the conditions.

Using high performance fabrics, advanced technologies and robust construction methods, dhb Performance garments are suitable for energetic and sustained efforts. With the widest variety of products on offer - each with a considered specification, the dhb Performance range provides extensive choice for all-season riders.

Specialised Fabric Technology

The Goldline technical bib short consists of an ultra lightweight construction made from high performance Italian Miti fabrics which offers extra support and freedom of movement. This contours around the body, sitting tightly against the skin to enhance aerodynamics and reduce excess bulk. A CyTech Elastic Interface Comp HP chamois makes it suitable for 6+ hours in the saddle.

A ventilating Antigua stretch mesh panel has been strategically placed along the center back panel to increase breathability where you need it most. Closely fitting next to the skin for a more aerodynamic fit, the straps have been bonded for maximum comfort, with seamless stretch mesh used at the leg hem to eliminate friction through intense movement. Flat Lock seams have been used throughout as an anti-chaffing feature.

It has an anti-bacterial finish to prevent bacteria from building up against the skin and wicking properties to then draw the excess moisture away from the body, keeping you dryer and more comfortable whilst riding.

Essential Features

A printed silicone gripper is fitted inside the leg hem line to ensure the Goldline Bib Short stays in place for a hassle free ride. Reflective tabs feature at the leg seam to offer an element to visibility in poor lighting conditions.

Luxury Finishes

The Goldline Bib Short features subtle signature dhb styling and is finished with a matt black printed dhb motive along the leg panel.

The Goldline collection has been designed by cyclists for cyclists and is an ideal choice for those who want a stylish, performing lightweight bib short. Team this with our lightweight Goldline Jersey to create the ultimate summer training outfit.

Wow!
My review is a bit biased as these are my first bib shorts. Now, I own cycling shorts but they're basic. It's almost unfair that these are my first take on bib shorts! They check all the boxes. The sheer silicone gripper area that some have mentioned as awkward is actually a nice touch. The chamois is sooo good! Dense in all the right places yet moves with you. These accept you for who you are.
I'm 6'2" 220# and ordered the xxl. Fit is excellent. Doesn't feel vacuumed on or weird anywhere.
Timing couldn't be better as I have a metric century next month. I've ridden five 50 mile rides so far in them and there hasn't been any negatives for me to hone in on.
Just get these already. Do yourself a favor.

Wow!
Great fit. Just the right amount of compression. The chamois is phenomenal. I've ridden about 300 miles in these so far. The only flaw is i only have one! I'm 6'5", 250lbs, and purchased an XXL. I can't wait to get my next pair. Thanks!

Nice summer Bib
Good value for money. And a nice understated look. Love the all black design.

Good stuff
Really nice bib shorts. Some good materials and a very comfortable pad.
However, I don't find these quite as comfortable as my RideLondon bib shorts. The legs are a little shorter and the shoulder straps a little bit tighter. I am 185cm and went for my usual DHB size of XL.

Answer:

The main difference (I have them both) is the material used in the Goldline being much lighter and race like. The pad is slightly thicker but not much in it. The Goldline are not as warm as the reasonably thick Aeron Pro material that feels more compression like in comparison. Sizing is the same. Goldline are flash looking too and on par with Castelli or Asos and maybe even Rapha! Certainly if they didn't have dhb on them, you would be hard pushed to determine who made them from the top end brands! A close fit is essential though as the material is race thin. I think they are worth the extra cost over Aeron Pro, just a shame different colours aren't available in Goldline.

Answer:

I have no idea. However, these are superb bib shorts of very high quality. They are the most comfortable I have ever owned. Very lightweight, so I don't expect they are very durable in the long run. I use mine for big rides of over 100 km - no chaffing at all.

Answers

Answer:

I'm 5'9" and waist 29" I bought the medium and I wouldn't suggest you to buy a small as I felt the shoulder harness was just right, little on the snug side. And the bib is slightly shorter than most other brands, Castelli, Assos and LG. For those reasons, you should get the medium at least.

Both shorts are exactly the same price, both get really good reviews. I'm looking for comfortable bibs for 100 mile rides on a LEJOG ride - any thoughts on comparisons between these and the Castellis?Thanks

For an End-to-End to ride, the dhb Goldline Bib Shorts should be a great option. They offer a thicker and denser pad for more comfort, more of the time. The dhb pad tends to offer a better fit for more riders but both pad technologies can be found on the following links:

I have an old pair of DHB Trace shorts (http://www.wiggle.co.uk/dhb-trace-bib-short/) in a medium and the fit is spot on. Is the sizing comparable? Including the leg length? I have heard these are rather short, is this the case?
